Jira 5.2.4 javamelody configuration question

Todor Kostadinov April 2, 2013

Hi,

I've installed javamelody plugin for Jira in our server with Jira 5.2.4 and I'm very impressed of the detailled reports. But the SQL statistics are missing. According to the user guide, I have to modify the /var/atlassian/application-data/jira/dbconfig.xml and /opt/atlassian/jira/conf/server.xml files in order to view some SQL reports. Here is my dbconfig.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<jira-database-config>

<name>defaultDS</name>

<delegator-name>default</delegator-name>

<database-type>mysql</database-type>

<jdbc-datasource>

<url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/jiradb?useUnicode=true&amp;characterEncoding=UTF8&amp;sessionVariables=storage_engine=InnoDB</url>

<driver-class>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driver-class>

<username>USER</username>

<password>PASSWORD</password>

<pool-min-size>20</pool-min-size>

<pool-max-size>20</pool-max-size>

<pool-max-wait>30000</pool-max-wait>

<validation-query>select 1</validation-query>

<min-evictable-idle-time-millis>60000</min-evictable-idle-time-millis>

<time-between-eviction-runs-millis>300000</time-between-eviction-runs-millis>

<pool-max-idle>20</pool-max-idle>

<pool-remove-abandoned>true</pool-remove-abandoned>

<pool-remove-abandoned-timeout>300</pool-remove-abandoned-timeout>

<pool-test-while-idle>true</pool-test-while-idle>

<validation-query-timeout>3</validation-query-timeout>

</jdbc-datasource>

</jira-database-config>

Which according to the guide have to be modified to:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<jira-database-config>

<name>defaultDS</name>

<delegator-name>default</delegator-name>

<database-type>mysql</database-type>

<jndi-datasource><jndi-name>java:comp/env/jdbc/JiraDS</jndi-name></jndi-datasource>

</jira-database-config>

If I understood the guide correctly.

Also the lines:

<Resource name="jdbc/JiraDS" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"

username="[enter db username]"

password="[enter db password]"

driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"

url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/jiradb?useUnicode=true&amp;characterEncoding=UTF8"

maxActive="20"

maxIdle="10"

validationQuery="select 1"

/>

Has to be inserted between <Context ... > </Context> element in /opt/atlassian/jira/conf/server.xml

But there is no such element in the file. I have found the <Context ... > </Context> element in /opt/atlassian/jira/conf/context.xml

Can you please clarify for me what are the exact steps in order to be able to view some SQL statistics?

Hi,

I have just downloaded the latest JIRA (5.2.10). In the downloaded archive, the conf/server.xml file contains, inside the Engine / Host tags:

<Context path="" docBase="${catalina.home}/atlassian-jira" reloadable="false" useHttpOnly="true">
...

I suggest to look again in your conf/server.xml

Otherwise, the conf/context.xml file gives the default configuration for all context(s). So it may also work, if you add the "Resource" configuration in conf/context.xml (not tested).

Yes, you are right, somehow I missed that.
